Welp, I'm going to have a ton of votes missed this game.

vote: Pie

[bv310]

Was that a real hammer? If so, dafuq?

[bv310]

Let's see:

I am comfortable with Grib being at L-1 for the time being.

Why?

[bv310]

/prodded. Didn't think it had been that long since I posted. Will have to read up tomorrow.

[bv310]

As of right now, Pie is not scum, Axle might be. Right now, the super-tunnel he's building on Grib is worrying me a lot. It feels like the kind of action I'd expect from a scum player in Face-to-face mafia. He's also acting really accusatory towards multiple people (Grib and Syne most recently). If we were running someone up now, I'd be most happy with an Axle lynch as much for the potential information as for the fact that I think he's scummy.

[bv310]

Also,

Vote: AxelGreaserr

because I forgot to do that in my last post.

[bv310]

I'm still here, just incredibly busy this week because of report cards and shit. Will post tomorrow evening, since then it's the weekend.

VOTE: Axel

Preliminary note: this vote is awful.

[bv310]

I'm here, just really don't have the capacity for Mafia. Trying to read through, but it seems like just constant white noise.

I'm here, just really don't have the capacity for Mafia. Trying to read through, but it seems like just constant white noise.

and you are happy with your vote that you have never justified at all? except for 192...

and 192 amounts to an argument that, if I was playing a game (face to face mafia) that i never have,
then Id be playing a game we are not playing in a way that is scummy.

then youd be happy to lynch me for

potential information

as much as the claiming I am scummy.

Even though you were asked a specific question at 215

@bv: what information would we get if Axle flipped scum? if he flipped town? 192

That you have never answered...

you claim "Trying to read through, but it seems like just constant white noise."

I adjust my previous analysis BV is not a do nothing lynch, BV is quite scummy enough to be lynched.

I haven't posted because I don't have the energy to. Clearly I'm not 100% committed to my vote, since I haven't even had the willingness to read through the thread. At no point have I answered the question, because I simply wasn't checking the thread. If being tired is scummy enough to be lynched, then lynch me, but don't try and paint it like I'm lurking for some scummy reason. That's just lazy.

Anyway, it turns out spite is a good motivator, because I've read the thread now (and it's much more interesting than I thought it would be).

By person, since this is how I organized my thought process.

Fuzzybutternut

Posted one-liners and fluff for much of his ISO. Had a good push in his most recent stuff, but not that much. Post #212 is especially bad. The "Hey guys, deadline is soon" post is usually a free way for scum to earn townie points, and it's worse when you see how little content he has in his posting. His more recent interactions with Axle are better though, so I'm content keeping an eye on him for now. I would not cry if he was lynched though.

synechdoche/Aronis
Not a ton of content from Syne, but what is there is good stuff. Lots of questions being asked directly to other people, which I usually find is a Town thing instead of a Scum thing. Aronis has literally two posts right now, and both are standard replaced-in conversation, so I don't really have an opinion right now.

RottenChef
Lots of quotes and one-line answers to them, which makes him hard to get a read on. Currently unsure how I feel about him, and I wouldn't be averse to seeing more pressure here. Please note that this isn't a scumread, but it is an "I don't know" read.

AxleGreaser
Currently my number one scum suspect. I'm not sure if it's the tone he writes in or the attitude that it implies, but something about him says that he knows more than the rest of us. Right now, I'm almost convinced that I'm right, and it comes from being scum. He's spent a lot of his ISO tunnelling super-hard on Grib, to the point that I think it drowned out a lot of other conversations. If he is scum, I expect his partner is one of the quieter people.

InflatablePie
The opposite to Axle, Pie is my number one Town suspect. Putting someone at L-1 as early as he did is a great way to get early reads, to see who freaks out and who doesn't, and I feel like Pie's been here long enough to know that and use that effectively.
Also, to answer your question of what info we'd get from an Axle lynch, we'd get to know his alignment. From that, we could then look at who he fought with the most and see if there's any interaction that feels especially phony with other players, and work from there.

beeboy
Basically nothing there. I can't fault him for not posting, since I haven't been for similar reasons, but I wish there was more for me to form a read on.

Grib
Likely Town right now, simply because he's so at-odds with my biggest scumread. If Axle flips Town, then I might get suspicious at how much he seems to be trying to get Axle to move on from him. Axle was tunnelling like he was heading for China, but that might be a valid read as the game goes on.

FinnLaw
Probably Town. His posts for a big part of the game were focused on one event, but the intent behind it seems to have been solid scumhunting. I also really like how he's been acting related to his Syne vote.


Right now, I'm comfortable with my vote where it is. I think there is good information to be found by getting a flip, and I think our best shot at hitting scum is with Axle.

I adjust my previous analysis BV is not a do nothing lynch, BV is quite scummy enough to be lynched.

and yo have read Fuzzies, so called case which amounts to:
"No fair Axle looked like he was tunelling Grib all day he s not allowed to vote anyone else ever."
"The fact that Axle has probed Fuzzy on more than one occasion and been looking for scum, really doesnt matter."

The fact that Fuzzy is the one with the OMGUS case.... (even though he voted me first, it was with a naked no reason vote)
earlier in the day I was his top scum read, or he was when I reminded him of that, but what was his actual reason for scum reading me apart from his recent OMGUS based case.

According to fuzzy because i have serious in my attempt to get what was my top scum read(Grib) lynched today...
And hence as part of that never flagged a willingness to lynch others.... you actually buy that and think Iam scum?

Nah, I'm actually an Alien Replicator this game

[bv310]

None of you have ever played with the Face-to-face mafia deck, and that makes me sad.

[bv310]

(The Aliens are a faction in the f2f deck)

[bv310]

Aliens=scum?

VOTE: bv310

See, it worked Axle!

Hm.

Yeah, I don't think my vote is moving toDay.

I caught a scumslip. I should get towncred and every1 should sheep me now.

Could you answer my question when you get the chance plz.

Explain bv.

Which question? Aliens=scum? Because if so, I explained it.

None of you have ever played with the Face-to-face mafia deck, and that makes me sad.

(The Aliens are a faction in the f2f deck)

Aliens are a faction in the face-to-face Mafia deck that a lot of the meets use. Claiming Alien or Replicant ____ is a joke, since no one ever really uses those roles unless it's a full-deck game, and those are crazy enough already.

[bv310]

Also, Axle. Spite in this case referring to me wanting to play purely because it makes your mislynching me much harder.

[bv310]

Yep, because jokes are never allowed and Mafia is srs bsns all the time.

[bv310]

Hey Finn, how much forum/face-to-face Mafia have you played?

[bv310]

Okay fuck that. Scummy as hell replacing out as soon as the pressure gets turned up.

[bv310]

VOTE: fuzzy

Fuzzy and axle aren't same alignment so we gain info from this

Okay hold it. Nowhere in your ISO or in anything else have you expressed a viewpoint similar to this one. You've said Axle was scum (which I still somewhat believe), but now because it's convenient you're willing to call him Town if/when Fuzzy flips scum? Why?

[bv310]

Why didn't I do those things? Because I honestly didn't care about this game at all. That's changed a fair bit, but that's the truth. As for drowning out conversation, I can't show you any because there weren't any other conversations happening.

[bv310]

Oh man, I missed that post. Can you un-hammer so I can hammer again?

[bv310]

Dang it, I was just getting ready to counterclaim.

[bv310]

Sorry BV. There's been too much going on IRL. I couldn't put as much into this game as I'd've liked. Well played town.

No worries, I know exactly how you feel.

[bv310]

I'll be honest, I was figuring Axle/Aronis for PRs

[bv310]

I think I WIFOM'd myself over night on that one. I figured he was just hiding in plain sight.

[bv310]

I swear I used to have intuition for these things. Taking multiple years of not playing Mafia has killed those
